Tell Your Representatives: “NO-Malaysian Mass Graves For Trafficked Women Do Not Get A Pass For The TPP!”

Today, Monday, July 27th, the State Department released its Trafficking in Persons report, revealing it is upgrading Malaysia — a cynical ploy to circumvent legislation that bars Fast Tracking of trade deals with worst of the worst human trafficking nations in order to allow TPP — a deal that includes Malaysia — to be Fast Tracked!

The upgrade comes just two months after the discovery of human trafficking camps and mass graves of trafficked persons in Malaysia. Human rights groups are outraged!

Stop the TPP and Human Trafficking

Write Your Members of Congress to Oppose the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP)

To qualify for Fast Track, the TPP must meet a basic standard that partner countries not be home to modern-day slavery. It is widely suspected that this is the reason the State Department has decided to baselessly upgrade TPP-partner Malaysia’s human trafficking status.

This is a shockingly callous move that prioritizes the economic advancement of corporate interests over human lives and basic human dignity.

Using the State Department’s report as a political ploy to advance the TPP is an unthinkable blow to the integrity of the United States and our ability to fight human rights abuses around the world.
